"In the next six months, I plan to buy building materials. This is because I am tired of living in a grass thatched house when all my fellows are living in iron-roofed houses. I also want to upgrade so that I may be in the same standard as everybody in my village. I would not want to carry the name of the poorest in the village."

"In the next six months, I expect my health to be better than today. This will be my happiness since I will be able again to move around, go to church and visit my relatives things that I currently find it so hard and stressing to be away from them."

"In the next six months, I expect to have a new house which will be spacious enough to accommodate all of us especially during the night such that my children will not be hoping from compound to compound to get a place to rest at night. This has always been my biggest worry since my daughters are at great risk of sexual assault."

"My life has greatly changed for the better. I now sleep peacefully not worrying about my son like I used to do before we received the transfers. Building a house for my son had given me sleepless nights for a long time. I had a lot of worries about his safety whenever he was going to find sleep in a neighbors house. At one time, I felt I had failed as a parent in providing the basic things that a parent should provide for their children. With GiveDirectly transfers, I have been able to construct a house for my son and he now stays at home with us. This has restored my pride as a parent and has made my son happy too."

"My life is different in that, I have been relieved from hard labor that I used to do, weeding people's gardens to get money, I also own a cow that is about to produce and I have savings that I'm to spend later for my basic needs, I couldn't have have got all these had I not received money from Give Directly."

"In the next six months, I expect to have saved enough money to be able to buy a dairy cow for the household. I know that the dairy cow will bring relief to some of the familys pressing needs. I also expect to be happier than I am now at that time."

"My life is different in that, before I never had Livestock but now I also own Livestock which I will use in future to marry my wife and for milk when they reproduce. I would not have got this Livestock immediately if I never got my transfer."

"I am happy that GiveDirectly sent me this cash transfer that helped me treat myself and pay my medical bills. I was very sick and helpless after being attacked by unknown thugs. Had I not received this cash transfer I would have lost my life."

"My life is now different in that, my standard of living has improved for the better. This is because, I have been able to acquire valuables in my house and also been in position to take my children to better schools and some in boarding. This has contributed to a peace of mind which has left my life more healthy due to lack of stress."

"In the next six months, I expect to be staying happily with my family in our newly improved home. I also expect to have had sustainable food production within the household that will help keep my family strong and healthy."
